WALKER COUNTY, GA — On Tuesday, District Attorney Clay Fuller, along with the GBI, announced a major development in a Walker County murder investigation. 

Twelve jurors returned guilty verdicts for two Alabama men who have been convicted of felony murder in connection to the death of Dakota Bradshaw. 

The verdicts were handed down last week to Kavon Collier, of Huntsville, Alabama, and Eric Dodds, of Huntsville, Alabama.

“In too many parts of the country we see prosecuting offices who do not support their hardworking law enforcement partners, said Fuller.  “The partnership between my office and the GBI in this case should be a model for the rest of the country where violent criminals and lawlessness reign supreme and prosecutors do nothing about it.” 

“Justice has prevailed with these felony murder convictions, remarked Director Register. “The collaboration amongst the GBI, the Lookout Mountain Judicial Circuit District Attorney’s Office, and the Walker County Sheriff’s Office underscores the value of these partnerships.  Together, we can confront those who threaten the safety and security of our communities.”

“Law enforcement agencies like the GBI cannot combat crime alone; we need the unwavering support of our prosecuting partners, said Special Agent in Charge Joe Montgomery.  “Standing with the Lookout Mountain Judicial Circuit District Attorney’s Office and the Walker County Sheriff’s Office we send a powerful message that violent criminals will face the consequences of their actions, no matter how or where they operate.”
